Things are bloody hard work at the moment (details unnecessary). So while I was doing the washing up this afternoon (there is a tranquility in the mundane), this popped up as next to listen to in my podcatcher:

Actually the remix has got potential. I think it's interesting how it recreates a bit of the chorus's original suspense curves. I think it could have done more of that and gone further, and become more aggressive. Some parts do add some good energy, though.My criticism is that this one (and so many other remixes), is exclusively relying on the chorus. That makes it a bit repetitive, predictive. There is not that much development. In any respect, it could have taken things further. It's too tame.

@els Mussols As I stated some time ago, "busy November" not only happened but turned into "busy November and first half of December". Olive harvesting is all consuming and exhausting, it precludes all non-essential activities. But, we're done. We did three harvests in total and ended up with our best-ever harvest in terms of both kilograms of fruit and litres of oil. This is despite this being a below average year according to the mill. The oil is good.

A brand new baseball softball stadium will be built in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, marking a huge step forward for the sport in Spain. It will be the first exclusive baseball softball facility in Gran Canaria island, since the team Capitalinos actually plays at Martinon, a venue shared with other sports.

The City Council of Las Palmas has ceded a 36,500 squared meters land next to Santa Caralina-Lomo Blanco higway, where the stadium will be placed; and the Cabildo de Gran Canaria will invest 1.5 million euros in the construction of the stadium. The construction will start in the early 2019, and the works are estimated to last between 8 months and a year.

The project includes a 400 seat stadium and two parking lots (one for the stadium itself, and the other for public use). Behind the stands will be located the locker rooms for the teams, offices, a meeting room, a warehouse, the scorers room and a batting cage.

Baseball in Spain is growing fast and strong, highlighted by the historic qualification of the U-18 National Team to the WBSC Baseball World Cup, to be held in 2019 in Gijang, Korea, coming back to the global tournament after 13 years of absence. Actually Spain is the 25th nation in the WBSC Baseball World Ranking, and is placed No. 7 in Europe.

As is normal in November, life is chaotic. Having a server meltdown the day before Olive Harvest I (which was successful) was suboptimal. Olive Harvest II starts tomorrow, so I'll be intermittent until Sunday probably and will try to get things back on track as soon as possible.

Maybe the rock and roll calendar did not survive the 1980's. I don't think it was a private joke among friends. Lol. Like Led September. It would take me a while to remember them all. Google is not helping me.
